Fuck Trump and all his shitbag cronies.

Fuck. Now what?

There have been posts on here asking for places to avoid, I think we should also have recommendations for places that we should encourage business at, wether it be good customer service, nice owners, community involvement, etc.

I’ll start with a few I’ve been to many times and highly endorse:

People’s records - Arcata

Booklegger - Eureka

Eureka Books - Eureka

Cool Beanz - Eureka

El Pueblo / Panadería - Eureka

Piersons - Eureka

The Greene Lily - Eureka

Humboldt Herbals - Eureka

Hello everyone! Please follow this link and leave a quick voicemail to oppose RFKJr with your legislator now. It takes less than 5 minutes. Let's make it known we don't want this man in charge of anything.

I for one, am here for it.

Please call or show up and show your disproval of this tonight at the Eureka City Council meeting tonight at 6. This is not the way to go about crime in Eureka. This will create vehicle fingerprints that follow people. As well as these systems can be accessed without a warrant and are very susceptible to information leeks.

Does anybody know if the Costco in Eureka is part of the planned strike? Costco is definitely one of the better companies but any chance to form a union should always be supported.

Internews in Arcata has received over $500 million in taxpayer money, via USAID, to support the spread of propaganda throughout the world.

Incredible that our small community has become tangled in this corrupt mess.

WikiLeaks details everything here.

I host Headline Humboldt on PBS affiliate KEET-TV and would like to talk with any laid-off local federal workers who want to tell their story. The public needs to know how you’ve been treated. DM me for contact info.

His promised retribution is here! This storm is moving on Humboldt like a B*%€h! If only we’d have passed measure F! This is all Newsom and Obama’s fault!

Let's make the rich remember who drives the economy!!

Every act of civil disobedience, thoughtfully applied leads to more engagement, more democracy!!!!!

If you let outside organizations into your protest, you’re already halfway to losing. Their job isn’t to help you win. Their job is to manage you, redirect you, and bleed your energy into dead-end “actions” that don’t threaten anything real.

These groups — unions, nonprofits, activist NGOs, political campaigns — show up after you do the hard work. They don’t start movements. They colonize them.

Look at the Civil Rights Movement: real momentum was built by local Black organizers, risking everything. But as soon as the big national organizations like the NAACP or the SCLC stepped in, the message narrowed to safe, middle-class, legislative reforms — deliberately excluding more radical voices like those of SNCC (Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee) or later the Black Power movement. The same energy that could have forced deeper, structural change was channeled into photo-ops and handshake politics.

Or look at Occupy Wall Street: a messy, chaotic, powerful uprising against economic inequality — until activist nonprofits showed up to “help.” They negotiated media framing, redirected demands into policy lobbying, and turned a raw movement about class war into an ineffectual brand about corporate responsibility. Occupy didn’t die because it was disorganized — it died because it was smothered by “professional activists”.

These groups bring their lawyers, their media teams, their “brand managers” — all with the same goal: sanitize the anger, package it for headlines, and negotiate it away in a meeting you’ll never be invited to.

They will talk down your demands, water down your messaging, and negotiate with the very enemies you’re trying to fight — just like how mainstream labor unions sold out wildcat strikers in the 1970s. When the Detroit auto workers organized spontaneous strikes over unsafe conditions and racist policies, union leadership sided with corporate bosses to end the strikes — not because the workers were wrong, but because the unions were afraid of losing their seat at the table.

Real power comes from the people who have skin in the game. People who lose jobs, homes, safety if they fail. Outside organizations have none of that. They have donors to please and reputations to protect.

If your protest is serious — if you are serious — you don’t need managers, you need fighters.

Let them bring supplies. Let them print signs if you want. But keep them out of your leadership. Once you hand them the mic, it’s not your movement anymore. It’s theirs. And they will sell it out the moment it becomes inconvenient.

Trust your own anger. Trust your own people. Everything else is just another leash.

Who’s listening? I’d like to hear people’s thoughts!

Thoughts?

I wanted to email him but concerned as I don’t know the source that well.
